ballaughbiker Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Quote Crash out" is the hyperbole here Nope. It is a good description of choosing to leave our present tried and tested arrangement for the totally untried and untested WTO outside of any trading bloc with no significant trade deals in place. Considering that remarkable potential situation, is anything but hyperbolic. "Ruled from continental Europe" certainly is though as well as being inaccurate (apart from the QTH of the actual parliament of which we are a part).

Particularly if Corbyn goes totally against his lifetime beliefs and stands on a Remain platform.

Various forms of PR just lead to permanently hung parliaments and paralysis. The type of mess we have now in Westminster would be permanent. Nothing but the most anodyne of legislation could pass. In any case there was a referendum in 2011 at the behest of the Liberals in the Coalition government. Went down like a lead balloon. There is no public appetite to change it and the public are probably right. eu elections in a ge....... not looking good for a second ref........

Totally amoral narcissistic serial philanderer and inveterate liar Boris Johnson is doing a snow job. He knows that the 27 are guarantors of the GFA which means the backstop is carved in stone. He will come back blaming the 27 for being "inflexible" or some such nonsense and that will be siezed upon by the UK rabid right wing press, which is to say pretty much all of it, as the "reason" for a no deal crash out. Which their owners want anyway..... If it's a complete and utter horlicks I wish there was a way to make all those who voted brexit pay for their folly and not just the car workers.... the backstop breaches the gfa......

He/his team no doubt read the completely true and accurate issues about those aircraft and their maintenance teams and pilots having EU licences and the issues that would precipitate and decided to make a headline out of it. So verifiable licencing issues were extrapolated by him to the clearly ridiculous 'planes won't fly' so he could ridicule it and brexiters down the pub could use it as an example of project fear and point and laugh. Haw Haw knows this is utter manipulation of true facts but recognises it as a very useful tool to feed the, let's say, 'busier' brexit supporters to be able tell their mates that it's all lies and around and around we go. They can then fill facebook and twitter with this bollox to make themselves feel better about the impending shitstorm they helped start. There are hundreds of examples of Haw Haw using this technique throughout the campaign. You have written some valuable stuff on brexit woolley but I am surprised you are using shit like this to try get back at inconvenient opposing data. PS If this had been a baseless lie, why have a UK airline just spent a few million re-registering their aircraft in Austria? PPS The EU have helped no end in this by telling the CAA that they will, for two years, assume for this purpose that the UK is still a member state if it crashes out. The CAA will need every day of that 2 years to replace all the regulation and compliance currently shared with the EU. This cannot just be 'copied across' as another poster, well versed in the usefulness of ridicule, alleged just a few days ago. it came from the eu.......
